7 Pretty Places To Go For Walks In Montreal When You're Over The Mountain

There's always somewhere new to explore! 🎡
Contributing Writer

One of the best parts of all the places to see in Montreal is that there's always somewhere new to see and explore. And what makes it even better is that it's a great city to travel by foot, which is definitely coming in handy these days.

And while walks up the mountain or through Old Montreal are great, why limit yourself when there are even more fantastic spots?

It's not only a great excuse to get outside (which we'll take any of these days), but it's also a great way to see the city.
